Poems

Even if
I give you permission
to write that poem
even if it really isn't all that good
to tell that joke
even if you always mess up the punchline
to wear that outfit
even if those boots really don't go
to feel proud of yourself
even if you're only scraping by
to love yourself
even if you acknowledge your shortcomings
to accept yourself
even if you've told yourself that
everyone who respects you does so because they don't know everything
to be imperfect
even if you dream of being someone so great and feel like you're so small
I give you permission
to be a poem
even if it won't be a very good one.
You don't have to be perfect to be deserving of love. Give yourself permission to love yourself even if you aren't who you know you could be.
